SPEEDBEAD.

As the Joker would say.....Wait til they get a load of me!!!! haha, j/k.....I just hope I get to stick one, any one..... LOL

Tin.... Lead = Bullets for war Old batteries are really hot items with salvagers around my area right now.

Its Cali, I am not sure they know what Carharts are : Fourbizz is in construction....he might have a pair lying around LOL

GSP has a suspect chin, as Matt Serra proved undeniably. I am online looking for deep fryer recipes right now. All my boys are coming over to see Chuck get back in the groove.

There is a guy in my town that has one of the black ones. I am not exactly "small" but that is exactly how I felt standing next to that thing. Absolutely huge!!!!!

For some reason, I dont really feel too bad for you LOL :

Shoot it through a paper target so the arrow passes completely through the paper. This will allow you to see if the arrow is kicking its tail in any given direction. You want a hole in the paper where you can only see where the arrow cut through (round hole) and where the vanes sliced through (three little slits). Any tearing of the paper will indicate you arrows are "kicking" As far as the peep goes....I shoot the biggest one I can fit in the string and I dont use the tube. I have buddies who shoot with the tube and love it. I just dont want that thing snapping and hitting me in the eyeball OUCH!!!! I have learned to look around the occasional twisting string and the larger peep allows me to do that. Wayne

I think you are going to find that most of the hollow bodies have a less than perfect hook up ratio. That said, the SPRO bronzeyes seem to be popular. The Furbits also look like a decent bait (hate that name for some reason). There is not too much variance in hook placement w/ the hollow frogs. Personally, I prefer one of the soft plastic toads available....

I own a Symetre, the only Shimano in my home. I absolutely love it and would consider buying another one should the need arise. Those Supremes are tiiiiiiight looking though....

The BPS Extreme reels are on sale right now and probably have the most options for that price range. They offer a cranking (5.4:1), regular (6.4:1) and a high speed (7.1:1) all in both right and left hand models. I know recently you have sworn off BPS products, but these are said to be bullet proof for the most part.

The bow you have should be fast enough to use a single pin sight. This will allow you to shoot from 5-20 yards without too much adjustment on the target. Single pins are great for beginners and seasoned hunters allike (I use the Impact Archery single pin). As a beginner, I 100% disagree with John J about the whisker biscuit. That little sucker could save you a lot of heart ache when your nerves (and consequently your arrow) are bouncing around with a deer in front of you. The fletchings dont get torn up that much to worry about, and they really are not too hard to replace either. Like Flechero said, GO TO A BOW SHOP!!!! They will help you out tremendously in setting up your equipment properly. Please, PM us with any more specific questions you might have. Wayne

<-------THIS GUY RIGHT HERE

WHAT HAS TWO THUMBS AND IS PUMPED UP ABOUT THE GUNTERSVILLE TRIP?????

NO WAY!! I love that restaurant in the store. The buffet kicks butt most days I have been there. I think I may look at some of the musky lures and of course the bass stuff. Not too many stores carry a good selection of musky equipment, Cabelas is one of them.

Anyone have any ideas, or do you just plan on hanging out and browsing? I havent put a lot of thought into it yet, didnt know if anyone else had. Wayne

Bevy shad came to my mind as well.

PM sent. Let me know if you need any more ideas. I am sure I can locate some "spots" for ya.

That makes two of us. Why do you need to get anything, when you already have it all? LOL

I'm gonna have to go with Avid!!!!!!!

I dont know....I kinda like SPEEDBEADle Sounds like a fishing lure to me ;D

I always enjoy reading your posts and the pics....well, what can I say? You are on them as always. Teach me.

Awesome, thanks. 90 days doesnt seem that long away!!!!!!!

Boy, I feel slow for missing this one. Hey, at least I got it before Christmas!!!!!!!! LOL Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all. Wayne

Fluke, do you think we can get that countdown going like you did last year for Fork? I was just talking to the fiance last night about this and all is well on the home front. Cant wait!!!!!!

Either that, or I will be doing my best Grizzly Bear impersonation and chasing trout in the stream by the mountain LOL
